Being in this thread is like breathing fresh air compared to all the other ann threads. A completely different quality of conversation. I hope it stays this way.
Me too!
Other than the time the DRK troll stopped by for some nonsense, it has been a FUD free zone. I try to put any of those types on the spot to produce statements that are based on facts. That usually makes them go away.

Now we are getting to where top 10 is within sight, I expect more and more FUD from the other coins that are panicking, but most people here are very fast to demand actual facts.  I am hoping for some actual tech discussions with the FUD guys that will say Teleport wont work, but the pirates seems to have explained it clearly enough that maybe they all know that it will work. i cant wait to get the mathematical proofs that shows Teleport totally making ring signatures obsolete and that is even without the blockchain bloat issue or the risk of one day Quantum computers decoding the blockchain.

We are a few weeks away from totally changing how crypto is viewed. Some will hate this, but most will absolutely love the transformation.

Now we are creating actual massive value here, not just revolutionary functionality, but also financial value with revenue sharing unique among crypto coins. I have always said BTCD will be top 10 coin one day, even back when it was 0.00015 such a long time ago. Some of you know that I actually have set my goals a bit higher, but keep in mind that a lot of traders have BTCD and they will sell when they achieve some profits, regardless of coin's future outlook. So, price will go up, volumes go up, price comes down, volumes go down, price gradually climbs back, etc. Just because we will be going higher on the top lists doesnt mean it will be in a straight line. Volatility is expected primarily due to the massive popularity that BTCD will have.

You know my advice. Buy and HODL!

James, I run a screen printing project in London with a friend.  I did a prototype BlackCoin t-shirt a few months back that I didn't end up releasing to the public.  https://i.imgur.com/nZ64mVb.jpg would you be ok with me designing and selling a BTCD tee? maybe giving 5%-10% back to the dev team.
Of course!
That would be great

James

P.S. BTCD .0048 and DRK .0041! .0039 .0037 .0033!?!? I think some big DRK holder just read yahoo news

Just to visualise.  Smiley I just panic bought at 0.00488888 myself.  Smiley

Awesome, I will keep it simple, just the swirl and web address incorporated.  I will have to do pre orders to get the cash together for the blanks.  I will work on getting a screen and proto done some time this week.  Smiley

seems we are running low on power, need to recharge.
getting these builds working on more than one machine is always a pain, but a necessary step
good news is I can continue pushing forward on the "magic" stuff while the rest complete the needed other parts

Coin value has surpassed DarkCoin.  Smiley
coin price, BTCD marketcap will exceed DRK marketcap after the version that teleports BTC is released

James

Indeed. The Market Cap is the true measure.

What is your ETA for that version?
Keep up the good work.
I estimate I can get it done before we get GUI and Mac and Windows builds done by the others. I wont be the bottleneck. It will be the mundane stuff that slows the production release.

So it wont matter so much if I get it working on ubuntu and Mac BitcoinDarkd that teleports bitcoin before September, if there is no Windows and Mac QT.

Now if all the different parts do happen to come together by end of this month and the testers cant find any problems, then, at that point your guess is as good as mine. BTCD will enable BTC to be dark, cant really put a number on that.

I have been working with an Ivy league univ math prof on calculating the size of the anon set that Teleport has and as I wrote in the DarkPaper it is quite big. As the overall teleport traffic grows, the anon set grows and it becomes harder and harder for anybody to make anything but random chance correlations, but there isnt even anything to randomly correlate! If you store a telepod for any length of time, the anon set could literally be everybody that did a teleport over a day, week, month, etc.

Short of you announcing that you will be teleporting X amount at noon and the receiver says I received X amount at noon, things get so fuzzy and confused, and even in such a blatantly non-private scenario if there is a lot of other teleports going on, you still cant be sure which telepod went from you to the destination. Since there is this fundamental uncertainity over who controls the telepods at any given time, any sort of path analysis quickly becomes useless.

That is before we add trusted teleports to the equation. Once we do that, there isnt even a cloning event to latch on to. Your internet traffic would need to be monitored to even detect that you are involved in a teleport, but of course the M of N (254) fragments that are being routed or did you initiate that?, it will be like trying to find a speck of white cotton in a blizzard.

I think once we get things setup we can have some sort of challenge to see if anybody can reliably identify who paid whom, or even guess at better than random chance basis.

You are quite correct!

looks like a pump happening

Maybe not a pump...just people finally catching wind of the news!

I expect things to get pretty crazy around here this week.  Hope everyone is ready. Let's all be ready to answer questions, and just provide general help for the flood of new folks that will likely be piling in here.

Exciting times!

P.S. Be careful not to create a flux-vortex with that flux-capacitor.  Don't want to go creating mini black holes that could potentially suck us all up into unchartered nether regions Tongue

He's bringing them now  Grin

Don't forget the Flux Capacitor!

We look for things, things that make us go
